Hi my name is Constance. My fear of driving was cultivated in my teens, when I was learning how to drive. At first I was excited while my Father was instructing me. Things changed the moment my Mother was in the car. She began screaming at me, informing me I was going to kill her and everyone around me because I was driving too close to parked cars. Since then, it had taken on a life of it's own. I finally obtained my DL 12 years ago, but have not been behind the wheel since my driving test. I would like to finally reach a point of comfortabilitycoupled with the confidence to move pass this. Most have no understanding of this problem, probably because they are drivers :] It is nice to have this forum.

Hi Constance,

Your story brought tears to my eyes. It sure does suck to have the fear. You'll get through this..believe that.

Thank you Lupe. It is just an obstacle, one of which I have created and hopefully will conquer ;)
